I've heard this quote before and considering that today is my baby girl's 5th birthday, I think that it is more than fitting..
"A daughter may outgrow your lap,
but she will never outgrow your heart."
Grace,
I just wanted to write a quick letter to tell you Happy Birthday. You have become such a beautiful girl - inside and out. You have an incredibly sweet attitude and spirit that remind me of the grace that you are, every single day.
As you grow and experience life, remember who you are and where you come from. Remember that you are strong and that you can accomplish anything no matter how long the roads to your goals look - nothing is impossible. Always have faith and stay true to yourself. Be confident and take pride in who you are. Remember that everyone is different, and that different is beautiful. You will realize that beauty will get you many things, but always remember that the inner beauty you hold within is the most powerful, and what will make you the most beautiful. Continue to be kind and compassionate, not only to everything and everyone around you, but also to yourself.
Laugh. Your laughter is bright enough to light up an entire room. Your laugh puts a smile on everyone's face, and your sweet attitude and personality bring everyone in our family so much joy.
Dream big. Dream colorful. Dream magic. Dream beyond the stars. Remember that everything big starts as something small.
I have faith in you, Grace. I will love you forever and look forward to a lifetime of experiences with you.
Thank you for all the smiles and even some of the tears. Thank you for always loving me and teaching me everyday how to be a better person. Thank you for being a part of our family. But most of all…
Thank you for just being you.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SISSY PANTS!!
